Feeling Tired IMMEDIATELY after eating

What causes the tired feeling that I experience IMMEDIATELY after just taking a few bites. Today I was eating a Hot Pocket Sub (I know, bad) and experienced this. I get the feeling often and was wondering if it was maybe an intolerace to something. Anyone know? I don't like the feeling and want to avoid it if I can.

Have you had your iron (ferritin) level checked recently? I am anemic and notice that when my iron is at a very low level, simply EVERYTHING I do (including eating) is exhausting and I am very breathless.

I don't know about within a few bites, but I have a terrible time with often feeling very sleepy by the time I'm finishing lunch (but not other meals), and it continues for a couple hours. It happens no matter what I eat. It's tough sometimes!
